Anyone seen this? It's on now on Discovery Real Time but i say yesterdays episode as well. Soooooo much better than Pimp my ride. They completely overhaul the car (engine, brakes suspension, bodywork, interior) not just the cosmetic stuff like Pimp my ride. The Monte Carlo they did yesterday was awesome. They gave it a brand new supercharged V8(!) and it sounded incredible.

Yeah, been watching quite a few of these shows - nearly everything that they produce is totally stunning. Only complaint about the show is the tedious gags they pull on the overhaulee. Saw another show called Rad Rides which was similar too - did an fantastic show on a Barracuda - dropped in a Hemi with over 550 cubic inches and a supercharger - beatiful.

I have seen quite a few of these and the cars and work involved is fantastic but after seeing so many it gets boring. Snatch car, paint picture of car, do car up whist winding up victim, play final gag, return car.

I tend to record them and just watch the before and after bits now.

The one to watch though is when they get about 8 of these people and their Overhauled cars and meet up at a race track.
